Imperial War Museums - Visits

I visited the Imperial War Museum yesterday and thought I would post a few photo's that may be of interest.

Tamzine - the smallest vessel used at Dunkirk.

 

60 Pdr

 

25 Pdr

 

Focke Wulf Fw190

 

V.S Spitfire Mk 1

 

Nick,

Superb quality photographs.

I am sure that there will be several RA Forum members druelling over the immaculate 25 Pounder.

The FW 190 looks good too.

Thanks, there not bad for a little Fujifilm compact camera that I borrowed, I would have struggled to have got a similar quality with my DSLR.

Better give it back to my daughter now, I suppose.

Thanks for sharing, Nick. Is that an 88 in the background of the Spit pix?

 

Cannot resist adding a few snapshots from my visit to the IWM in January.

First; The same Spitfire I, but from a different angle:


Second: A close -up of the He 162:


Sorry, artillery not my thing...

Great pics Nick. I love the little oil can on the 25 pounder! immaculate presentation.
And yes it is a 88!

Thanks Mike.

 

Great photos Nick, shame you did'nt get the 5.5, me and dad used to love seeing it when we visited together. Think it brought it all back to him!
Now me and my son do the same.

A bit 'abbreviated' I know ie no mounting/loading gear but I also think the huge (16inch?) guns at the entrance look fantastic.

 

Great photos mate. Definately a place I wanna visit one day.

 

Cheers Nicks,

I've not been there since I was a child- Has anyone been to the Manchester Imperial War Museum?

There are audio guides however I'm not sure what languages are available, it may be worth sending the museum an e-mail to enquire.
